I was given a Girard-Perregaux watch when I graduated 8 th grade in 1946. It is just a plain gold watch with my name engraved on it. I found a watchmaker who got it running for me and I gave it to my daughter. She loves it and wears it on special occasions.

This video feels like you did just 10 seconds of research on Girard Perregaux. I prefer my Laureato over the RO any day. GPs has other amazing watches too. Top 5 of all brands for sure!

yeah... I was thinking the same. I was researching GP and stumbled onto THIS. I have no idea why I opened his videos, he just loves ranting. I can understand that, easy way to get some free clicks/views, but in essence it's open underestimating and derogation of his audience. He has more videos like this on some other brands, I remember now. Jesus... I should stay away from this

TT what do you mean by GP being a homage company, as I am perplexed by that being a serious collector of the brand for the past 10 years & knowing the brands history? I have actually visited to the factory many times, I collected my first GP Constant Escapement LM back in 2013 (now having 6 of them, about to purchase my 7th). Did you see the watch they just released a few days ago, nothing homage about it?

Should Patek Philippe and vacheron constantin also move away from their “Royal Oakesque” ways? Because their nautilus and overseas watches (respectively) came years after GP was already manufacturing the Laureato. Which was the second watch to come out right after the Royal Oak.

I have a GP, gyro, date, that belonged to my father. He bought it around 1966 for $90.00 in Glendale, CA. The case is stainless steel, and it has a black dial. The band is faceted stainless links. It's a beautiful watch, and in perfect condition. Old-timer watchmaker friend told me GP is one of the best movements.

Have recently found a girard in my aunt who passed away collection. Has an engraving with the date 5-7-42 it isn't a big watch and is pretty small inside and has a female style look to it. But is important to me as I was from a family member who helped raise me and truly loved and respected me truly. So means more than money to me and helps tell a story about her.

I have a 68 Sea Hawk that my dad gave me, he got it when he was around 13 and it still works and looks great it's honestly one of my favorite watches in my collection.

Hi GP is in my opinion still a great watch . I found out that just the last couple of months watch 'screamers' on the internet are trying to put down . Reason i don't know . I think maybe because they listen to eachother without having a personal opninion. The champion is Paul Pluta , he screams about a lot . In his opininion Patek , Rolex are the brands to have . It's true they keep their value because of shortage and quality but Girard Perregaux is quality wise equal . Yes i own a couple of them . A Seahawk pro rose gold tourbillon . A WWTC in platinum with platinum bracelet and a day date Richeville in rose gold . I do own more important watches but the first 2 GP's are my favourite . From a safety view , when you go restaurant or other night time venue wearing a Rolex or Patek you will be spotted by everybody around you and tel calls will be made to make sure you come home without your watch and in a worse case even have to visit a hospital what i hope will not happen to anybody out there . Have a great holiday all.🌻🌞😘🌞🌻

I own a 39 jewel gyromatic GP from the 1960's. 1950's and 1960's were the golden age for Swiss watchmaking. The design and measurements of those watches were so much more practical than the over sized watches of today.

@bighands69

The obsession with large has definitely had an effect on functionality. Large watches are great for diving and they can be designed for withstanding abuse with their strong heavy cases. Unfortunately that now is dictating everyday watches which is sad. Many manufacturers still make small watches but they can be hard to source.

The laureato is a homage of the royal oak. Which is a unique situation because it was originally made back in the 70's I believe..back before the royal oak was what it is today. Fast forward to the resurgence of the royal oak today and they "re-issue" the laureato. If anyone gets a pass..its GP. As for their other models..they are absolutely beautifully done and extremely under rated

@bighands69

It is not a reinterpretation at all. They designed the watch from the ground up in the 1970s. The Octagon shape of the Laureato is really for watch proofing the movement into the case. As part of the process it is screwed into the case. People are mistaken for thinking they copied the RO.

I think that their 1945, their 1966 and particularly the Bridges collections are amazing

I own a vintage 39 jewel Gyromatic and a vintage manual wind Seahawk. I like them both and appreciate the history of GP. They made one of the first wrist watches for men in 1880 and timed the first Zeppelin flight in 1900. The new GP are very expensive and I was told they have a solid gold rotor. But I prefer the vintage models.

GP was the first company to produce wrist watches. They did it for a contract for the German Navy. They are a great company. I love their vintage watches.

I love GP watches but for some reason they are lackluster when it comes to holding their value. That's not really a complaint but an observation. They can cost a pretty penny when bought new but you can pick up some really nice used GPs for under $2k that would have costed over $7k new. My opinion is these GPs are under rated under appreciated and often under valued.

I have my father's Girard Perregaux that he bought in Port-au-Prince Haiti while on a cruse circa 1962. It is a 39 jewel Gyromatic movement with date, white dial, not the high beat model that came out years later. Understated in outward appearance but the movement is gold plated and really quite spectacular. I even found the original red leatherette box it came in while clearing out belongings from my childhood home. GP has a long list of innovations as you have stated in the video.

I do have vintage Girard-Perregaux. I’d love to know more about it and a value.

I'm looking for a quality gold watch for around 2 K I've thought about longings and a Girard Perregaux 47990 any thoughts?

Around 1990 my father had me wear test an old square face self winding GP that he bought for a song and cleaned and repaired. That thing was perfect. Thin, light, accurate, set it and forget it. I had a hard time giving it back, but I didn't have the money to buy it.

I know this is a late comment but I was gifted my grandfather's vintage Girard Perregaux Gyromatic it's a small square watch and I really wanted to do research on the brand because I didn't know much about them and this video was very helpful. I wish I was able to figure out the reference number of the watch to get more details but its old and worn but I love it. Thanks for the education.

Nephew, you are teasing all of us with your Black Friday adverts and vintage piece showcasing. Should be a grand morning tomorrow!

Hi, Jory! Whats the reference of your Oris Big Crown Propilot? I need that beauty! 😁

I own a Sky Hawk from the late 40s early 50s, it's gold with a SS case back. It runs very well the only problem is it is 31mm, I wear it every few weeks for a couple of days, the dial and gold Breguet numbers are stunning.

JORRY, Sports steel watches are what's in and has been for some time, these lovely watches and brands have to compete to survive you and I like dress watches but the overwhelming majority wants sports watches. When we see a watch with the Breguet hands do we say it's a copy you're ripping them off? Are Mercedes hands exclusive to Rolex? Integrated bracelets? Rolex had one and it was quarts. Is that a rip off of AP? Is the Chevy Camaro a homage or a rip off the Mustang? The Barracuda, the Challenger or the Javelin all represented sporty 2-door Coupes. Just food for thought. Good luck on your sale and your Channel.

GP = hommage company? technically according to your definition Patek is a hommage of AP and Hublot is probably the biggest hommage company much bigger than Parnis is!! And I don’t want to continue with divers. There everybody is technically an hommage. Question: the shoe and shirt you wear has the same design and format of a shirt produced 100of years earlier. Does that make it them hommages too? Not only you got the GP wrong on their involvement in the business but there is a lack on your definition what hommages are.

I like when you use watches from the Shop in videos.I feel it brings it to life....

I have a late 1950's era GP Gyromatic with 18,000 beats movement which I just had serviced. I also have a manual wind GP Sea Hawk, a famous model. The reissue 1966 GP is a beautiful watch with solid gold rotor but retail is very over priced IMO.

That would put the nautilus , Rolex oyster quartz and eve the Bvlgari octo finisimo not to mention the Vacheron Constantin over seas in that category . Gerald Genta collaborated on and of record with many many watch makers over his career in the time where highlighting the designers name wasn’t the norm, only the manufacturers name was mentioned , as for example the omega constellation in 2 varieties, what makes you so sure he had nothing to do with the GP laureto which was released only 3 years after the RO and 2 after the Baume et Mercier Riviera.
